Two-child benefit cap debate incomplete without race and ethnicity data
It is therefore likely that the lack of government support for more than two children, will particularly suppress the already disadvantaged in society from having more than two children. Since the data shows these groups are more likely to be Black, Asian, and Ethnic groups, it is clear the two-child benefit cap will specifically impact fertility rates in ethnic and racial groups, leading them to have fewer children.
IMHO the whole point was to stop poor people bringing more kids into poverty. The paltry amount doesn't lift anyone out of poverty, but it will help Pakistan and other countries mentioned.
